Audigy 4 Pro Mic probl

Hello, it's me agian... I'm having massi've problems with the my mic on my Audigy 4 pro, I plugged my mic into the front line /mic in using that big connector that came with the sound card but no matter what I do I cannot get it to record at a decent level, could you tell me what settings to use, the mic was fine with the Audigy 2 ZS gamer I had.... thanks

This seems to be an option that creative have left off the control pannel, on most cards you have the option to use mike gain.
On the Audigy 4 Pro creative have left this option out for some reason, maybe someone from creative might like to post a comment on this, as i have the same problems in voice over net conferences and i never had this problem with li've 5. platinum card.
Maybe a ploy from creative to get you to buy their headsets i:e HS-300

Audigy SE Mic Probl

I recently got an Audigy SE and plugged in my headphones to the Line-in (Green plug) and the mic to the "Flexijack" (blue plug). Now, my mic is not recognized by Windows. If I try to open Teamspeak. it says I do no have a sound.out device. If I try to test hardware, it does not see the mic. I am sure it is plugged in the correct spot. Furthermore, I went into the mixer and apparently the microphone can be set both as a source and a recording device. Anyway, I went in there and made sure mic was set as a recording device. Whenever it is set as the recording device, I hear a low hiss in my headphones, yet when I switch my mic to the headphone plug, it doesn't pick up on the mic there, either.
So, basically, the card is not picking up my mic, and if I have my mic unmuted, then I hear a hiss in my headphones. Anybody have a suggestion?

Same card, same issue with the mic not being recognised even though the line is swithced off.
There are a lot of issues here posted that go unanswered and unresolved and i think the lack of input or help from creative admins says quite a lot.

>Learn the M audio!!!! <
I KNEW IT!!! LOL!
I just KNEW someone was going to say that. Yeah, $400 and a year later it is sitting in a drawer. I don't have the time. The "manual" is even worse than Creative's "user guide". It is assumed if you spend $400 you have a clue. I'm a Guitarist! Not a keyboard player. We walk into the studio, plug in, play our parts, get paid, then go out for pizza.
It took me long enough to figure out Acid, Waves plug-ins and T-Racks before I finally had some quality production values. I can't speed another year learning M-Audio's firewire "controls".
Come on. Someone must know what is up with the "value".
Do I need to reinstall the drivers? What?

Audigy SE - mic input suddenly stopped working

.Audigy SE - mic input suddenly stopped working6 I use a Creative Audigy SE sound card and it has worked fine since the day I bought it until recently the mic input stopped working.
Fair enough, I tested with spare headset in case headset was faulty. No workie. I tested headset in laptop - workie.
So I bought a replacement card, no workie. I get sound out, but cannot get a signal on my mic when connected.
I have troubleshooted this extensi'vely (checking the settings in the creative panel, windows control panel, the mics mute switch is not on) and have run out of leads.
edit: i have also updated drivers and tried a different pci slot.

So after my mic input stopped working on my Soundblaster Audigy, I have done the following troubleshooting:
- checked headset works in another computer;
- bought a brand new sound card;
- checked all driver settings for an accidental mute;
- updated sound card drivers;
- ensured on-board audio is disabled;
- formatted windows XP;
- Run XP control pan audio diagnostics.
Still I cannot get sound on my Mic input. My sound output to headphoes is fine. Can anyone offer any other trouble shooting?

Sound Blaster Audigy Pro - Win7 software?

) Anyone know?
I have a soundblaster Audigy Pro card and external box.
When Creative get arround to releasing ?drivers for Win 7 will it give me the CMS software and THX Console?
If not will they be releasing software as well?
Thanks?

Kingtech,
I would suggest making sure that the Li've! 24bit is cleanswept and then also cleansweeping out the Audigy 2 ZS and then reinstalling. Here is the cleansweeping instructions:

Help -- Getting my Audigy Pro 4 RM-1500 working in windows 7 X64

@Help -- Getting my Audigy Pro 4 RM-500 working in windows 7 X64. To anyone who can help
?I used the latest version of daniel_k's most excellent drivers to install?my Audigy Pro 4 ?(with external box) on a Windows 7 X64 operating system and all the audio devices I have tested so far have worked great.
However, I can't seem to get the rm-500 remote working. I have installed the lasted (0/30) version of mediasouce5;? and the drivers for my remote do not seem to be included.
The closest I can come is the beta version of the vista entertainment center which does install a remote control settings configuator. However, it doesn't seem to recognice the Audigy Pro 4's version of the rm-500, even though it is listed as an option. I get a "can't find an ir device" error.
Any suggestions for me as to how I can get it working, if it all?
Much Thanks!
Jackalope

D When I was beta testing Windows 7, I had the same problem with my remote for X-Fi Platinum Fatalty Champion. I discovered a program called Intelliremote (just Google it) that worked great. It works with Creative remotes. I found for some reason the beta driver of entertainment center, in compatibility mode, works with the final version of Win 7. I hope this hel

My MacBook Pro mic is muffled

Lately, I dicovered that my MacBook Pro mic is muffled. I need to know is this issue related to the hardware component so I should change it or is it a software problem?

What year and model MBP do you have? Just wondering if the mic input hole has been clogged with "something"?
You can also try a NVRAM/PRAM reset and see if that helps:

Audigy 2 zs platinum pro MIC-IN measures 2 different resistanc

First post for me so I want to say hello to all.
ok i have the audigy 2 zs platinum pro and i am connecting the supplied /8" to /4" adapter into the MIC-IN/LINE- Jack.
i have a /8" stereo jack plugged into that and on the other end is a white and red rca male connectors.
when i measure the white connector i get 340ohms and when i measure the red connector i get 725ohms...
im just wondering what is going on here...
when i measure the resistance on my el-cheapo computer mics....(you know the kind that are like $4.99 and have a base with a long arm....on its stereo /8" male jack it measures 000ohms when ohm meter is connected to its ground ring (and both the tip or center ring)
so im wondering what kind of ill effect this will produce if i connect that computers stereo mic connector into the supplied /8" to /4" stereo adapter and select record from both channels stereo and 2 at same time (on that MIC-IN jack with the Gain turned to "ON" since i measured TWO DIFFERENT resistances mentioned above.

one more thing
if i turn the mic gain to OFF so it is just in LINE-IN mode when i measure the L channel (the white rca = 2.5kohms) and (the red rca = 26kohms)
note im still using my 2 rca to /8" cable and then hooking that to the supplied /8" to /4" adapter and insert the adapter into the line-in /mic-in jack
?if i do the same test with LINE-IN 2 i get 00Kohms on the left channel (white rca) and on the right channel (red rca) i get 600Kohm and it climbs fast.
WHAT IS GOING ON!

Audigy 4 non-pro, multimedia probl

Hi there,
Got the Audigy 4 non-pro card, and I'm sticking with it for a long time... but it does have a few problems, I was hoping some of you may have the same problems and could help me. The first one may not be a problem with the card itself.
The thing is, I have a certain DVD-title that has Linear PCM Stereo and DTS-Digital 5. Surround soundtracks. The stereo works fine (let's say in Windows Media Player), but when I switch to DTS (hoping for a surround experience), there is no sound! I am able to have surround sound with most DVDs, although it's usually Dolby Surround. Do I need special software to play DTS soundtracks? I know that PowerDVD (or whatever its' name) has to be upgraded for DTS, but the Windows Media PLayer does have a DTS logo thing, when I play it, but there is no sound!
The other problem seems to be more serious.
When I work with MIDI, or play MIDI files, there's a strange lock-up of the system, although on an irregular basis. Sometimes, suddenly, instantaneously, everything stops, and there is a sustained and quiet MIDI sounds, as though the last notes are held, and the system is in a state of complete lock-up. Does anyone have a problem with taht? Or a solution, even better!
Cheers.

I think you should try some modded driver. It will provide better sound. Try these following links and find out which driver will give your favorite sound. But remember to back up your system (system restore is a good choice before doing so)

Audigy 4 Pro Hub probl

Hi
I have just got an Audigy 4 pro. Everything seems to be working fine except parts of the hub. At the moment the Remote Control, volume, headphones and cmss etc dont seem to be working. But the other posrts like the Firewire, optical, and spidf etc are all working.
So is this a problem with the hub or have I done something wrong?
Thanks

Well having spoken to Technical support for about an hour, they told me it could because my onboard sound card hadnt been disabled. Well I've disabled that and uninstalled its drivers. Then I did a clean install of the audigy4. Still the same problem. For some reason, the headphone volume slider in the surround mixer is greyed out and the isnt any headphone tab in the Audio console. Having been told that this is Creatives best product and "it cant have anything wrong with it", I am beggining to wonder just what is going on? I've completly disabled my old onboard sound, done a clean install and still the headphones/volume/remote etc arent working. Is there anything else I can try?

Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro Mic/Codec problem

Okay, I'm running a ZS Plat Pro and I'm having some problems with my mic settings for some reason. Here's the deal:
My headphones are plugged into my external hub with the mic into the Line In slot. I have sound, theres power, that's all good. The problem lies with my microphone settings somewhere, I dunno where, with a possible codec problem I'm guessing. Here's why.
I can't get ANYTHINGto pick up in my mic. All the settings are correct in Control Panal and in my Creative Volume Control. Line In is selected for Recording, the volume is up, it's not muted, my headset is not muted, and the gain is turned on on my external hub, yet still nothing. Here is where hopefully someone can help. I can get it to work in Ventrilo when I go into setup. In setup to test with, I have to select a Codec from a list to use to test with. Meaning, there is NO current selected codec to test with. Once I select one, it works.
What I'm guessing is somehow, my computer doesn't have a current codec selected for my mic to work with. IE: MSN, Yahoo, Windows Sound Recorder, control panal/sound and audio/test hardware... they all come up detecting no sound at all, when in FACT, I know it works in Ventrilo when I select a codec.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the card with up to date drivers. Can anyone help at all please? Thank you.

Audigy 2 Platinum Pro remote probl

I was looking over to my Audigy 2 Platinum Pro today and noticed that the remote light is flashing wildly, and I'm not sure why, as I haven't noticed it doing this before. The remote works if you click it, and I even removed the battery to see if the flashing would stop, but still no go. What's the deal?

Tkzoo,
Check your connections to the Audigy card. It may be that the cables aren't all the way in on either side. Is there anything else in the room that might be emitting a IR signal? This could cause the light to blink also.

Audigy 2 ZS pro mic prob

Need help, sitting here pulling my hair out... Everything works perfect exept my mic, and yes i have done about all to fix it. I?ve disabled the onboard soundcard, and no the mic is not in mute. I?ve tryed about all the solutions i could find here on the forum. I?ve installed the latest drivers and so on and so on. Now the problem is that in start/settings/Control Panel/Sounds and Audio Devices/voice Voice recording the Advance button is gray, so cant get in to advance settings. Its worked like a charm before and now its just gone. I have done the Test hardware and it cant find the mic, and yes i have tested with other headsets just to c if my was broken (my headset Koss SB/45). I remember i had this broblem a long time ago, but i cant remember what i did to fix it. Think that time it was something in windows that was faulty, im going nuts here please need help.
thnx in advance...
btw im using Win XP ProMessage Edited by SuperSperm on 02-28-20060:26 AM

Unfortunately, though it's as if the input hardware doesn't exist, the cause isn't clear. It might be the drivers, or it might be the hardware, or Idon'tknowwhatelse. One question: you said the "Test hardware" couldn't find the mic. What software did you run for that?
I have 4 suggestions from simplest to most radical.
. Check for IRQ conflicts
2. Reinstall the drivers.
3. Move the card to a different PCI slot.
4. Uninstall and reinstall the card and all Creative software (i.e., a cleansweep) with a bootup after uninstalling and removing the card before reinstalling. Use your original install CD for the reinstallation and make sure the card is working before installing any updates.
You can try & 2 fairly quickly. If I think of anything else, I'll post back.

Nope, none of the other headsets worked. And yes ZS are set as default. And the buttun is not gray in Audio/ Sound playback. But its gray in Audio/ Sound recording to. I have a check in the box too.
Thnx for reply btw Just hope u know what the problem is.

SB Audigy Platinum Front I/O Mic Probl

Whatever i do, i just can't seem to get the microphone plug on the I/O module to work. When i plug
my microphone in the back of the sound card itself, it works, but not when i plug it in the front.
The strange thing is that the headphone plug on front seems to work, but the microphone doesn't.

Hello, is this the place for an argument? Oh wait, that's a Monty Python skit, not real life. *ahem*
So what I'm hearing is that we're basically on our own. Is it that hard to answer a simple question like, "How do I completely uninstall ALL my SB Fatalty drivers and install brand new fresh ones from the internet, and in doing so, hopefully reset my I/O dri've?"
That's my question.
Cheers,
Phoenix
